gets appear as short, thin lines; usually for very short periods of time. The bottom echo usually looks like a slice taken from the 2D screen. Surface clutter appears at the top of the screen, near the picture of the boat.

Using the Fastrak screen combines the “instant read” of a flasher with the versatility and convenience of a liquid crystal graph.

MENUS

The X-70A 3D uses menus extensively to guide you through the unit’s features.The MENU key accesses most of the these features, letting you customize the unit to your par- ticular water conditions. You can exit from any menu by pressing the CLR key.

CHART STOP

The X-70A 3D gives you the

ability to stop the chart for study. You can stop the chart no matter which mode the unit is in - 3D, 2D, Bottom View, or FasTrack. (Note: Stopping the chart doesn't stop the digital sonar. The digital depth display will con- tinue to operate.)

To stop the chart or start it, press the MENU key, then press the key next to the "Chart Stop Run" menu. Finally, press the key next to the "Exit" label. The unit returns to the last used sonar display.

ALARMS

The X-70A 3D has three different alarms. The first is the Fish Alarm. It sounds when the Fish I.D. feature places a fish symbol on the screen. (This alarm only works in the 2D and 3D modes.) Another alarm is the Zone Alarm which consists of a bar on the right side of the screen. Any echo that appears inside of this bar triggers the alarm. The last alarm is called the Depth Alarm. It actually consists of two alarms - shallow and deep. Only the bottom signal can trigger these alarms. They are useful as an anchor watch, a shallow water alert, or for navigation.

To adjust an alarm, first press the MENU key, then press the key next to the "Alarms" label.The screen shown at the top of the next page appears. Follow the instructions to set each alarm.
